EUR/USD Price Forecast: Steadies below 1.1800 near seven-week highs

  • EUR/USD may retest the seven-week high of 1.1811.
  • The 14-day Relative Strength Index near 64 indicates solid positive momentum.
  • The immediate support lies at the nine-day EMA at 1.1702.

EUR/USD remains calm after halting its seven-day winning streak, trading around 1.1790 during the Asian hours on Wednesday. The daily chart technical analysis indicates a bullish bias, as the pair is moving upwards within an ascending channel.

The EUR/USD pair maintains a bullish near-term bias as spot holds above both the nine-day and 50-day Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs). The pair is pressing higher with the 14-day Relative Strength Index hovering near 64, suggesting firm positive momentum but edging towards overbought territory as price approaches nearby overhead levels.

On the upside, the EUR/USD pair may retest its immediate barrier at the seven-week high of 1.1811, reached on April 14, followed by the upper boundary of the ascending channel around 1.1830. A sustained break above this confluence resistance zone would lead the pair to explore the region around 1.2082, the highest since June 2021, reached on January 27.

The EUR/USD pair may find the initial support at the nine-day EMA of 1.1702, followed by the nine-day EMA of 1.1655 and the lower ascending channel boundary around 1.1630. Further declines below the channel would expose the eight-month low of 1.1411, recorded on March 13.

(The story was corrected on April 15 at 06:20 GMT to say, "seven-week high of 1.1811 instead of eight-week high of 1.1834, in the title, first bullet, and the third paragraph.)
